I joined the movement to create positive change for moms and babies everywhere, especially those most at risk.
With preterm birth and maternal death rates continuing to rise, I’m committed to raising funds so that every family gets the best possible start. But I need your help.
On September 25, 2002, my wife Teresa gave birth to a beautiful baby girl who weighed in at 1 pound 1.5 ounces and was 11.5 inches long. On September 26, 2002, we almost lost Teresa, due to a life-threatening condition known as HELLP syndrome. I rejoined the movement three years ago to help moms and babies everywhere enjoy the miracle that blessed my family as Emma is now 23 and a Graduate Student at the University of Pittsburgh.
So, please visit our fundraising page to make a donation. Together we’ll be part of a movement to make America a more equitable place and ensure that every mom and baby is healthy.
John, Teresa, and Emma Rose
